About
The Upland Residency is a self-paced digital fellowship for early career and established ceos, athletes, and entertainers who aspire to move beyond branding — to monetizing, marketing, and cementing their literary legacy. Created by April Sheris, a global literary IP publishing authority and founder of Upland Studios, this program is a curated guide into the world of author entrepreneurship and visibility. Inside, you’ll learn how to transform your book from a creative project into a wealth-building brand through sponsorships, strategic touring, and commanding presence. You'll walk away with a contribution to the most respected publication for emerging voices and thought leaders. Each module is infused with the same sophistication and strategic foresight that defines the Upland Studios brand — merging art and commerce, intellect and influence. We truly believe 'Books Are The New Rich'. And class is officially in session.
